A member asked:
Hey doctor i am just wondering should i be concerned if i feel tightness in my throat area? could it just be anxiety? thanks!

Various causes: Tightness in the throat area is a very general symptom that can occur in a variety of conditions . Certainly anxiety can cause this. Do you have any other symptoms associated with this? Did it come on suddenly or have you been experiencing this for awhile? Recommend consulting your doctor for further evaluation if it persists. Hope this is helpful .
